thanks to nigel i have found out its a smashed reverse syncro (good call tony).
now i have to wait another week or two while they get another (the more i argue and piss them off, the higher the chance they fight with me abou twarranty..at least thats what i think. So if i leave them to it i hope they just go about their business fixing the car and dont even mention anything to do with warranty...)

no worries here is a photo of the broken syncro.
to get the syncro you have to buy this shaft assy. Nice work holden
reverse is the 2nd last gear (near the pinnion gear) on the shaft and I had to use a 50 tonne press to get the gears off only to find that you can't buy the syncro
too many reverse doey's .
would be a good time for a lower final drive nik .
